Don't Forget: WoW Hungry Howies Day!
Hungry Howie's PIZZA Day!
The April Hungry Howie Fundraiser Day is Monday, April 8th! Please show them the coupon that we send home OR tell them that you are from World of Wonder and who your child's teacher is for a chance to win a classroom pizza party! A portion of World of Wonder sales on this night is donated back to our school to help purchase classroom materials and supplies.
WoW March Is Reading Family Fort Night and Make a Pizza Night is a Big Success
Kudos to Miss Ann Machrowski, our JumpStart and GSRP Family Services Coordinator
The HighScope Education Research Foundation and the Michigan Association for the Education of the Young Child (MiAEYC), is pleased to announce that Ann Machrowski has been selected to receive a 2019 Excellence in High Quality Early Childhood Educ ation award. Ann was nominated in the category of Early Educator. We know that Miss Ann is wonderful and WoW is lucky to have her. We are very proud and glad that she was recognized by these two organizations as being so Wonder--full!
IMPORTANT: Y-5s/K placement is NOT COMPLETE until you do registration ONLINE
Current Y-5s will be registered in Kindergarten, but still need to go online as instructed to update their student profiles. WoW preschoolers and GSRP students are NOT registered for Y-5s or kindergarten until they follow the instructions on the form that was provided and actually enroll online. Please do not delay as it may reduce your chances of getting the placement you desire and makes it very difficult for the district to plan for how many teachers they will need. If you have questions call our office 810-591-8349
